SL74HC138
1-of-8 Decoder/Demultiplexer
High-Performance Silicon-Gate CMOS
The SL74HC138 is identical in pinout to the LS/ALS138. The device
inputs are compatible with standard CMOS outputs; with pullup
resistors, they are compatible with LS/ALSTTL outputs.
The SL74HC138 decodes a three-bit Address to one-of-eight active-
low outputs. This device features three Chip Select inputs, two active-
low and one active-high to facilitate the demultiplexing, cascading, and
chip-selecting functions. The demultiplexing function is accomplished
by using the Address inputs to select the desired device output; one
of the Chip Selects is used as a data input while the other Chip Selects
are held in their active states.

This device contains protection circuitry to guard against damage due to high static voltages or electric
fields. However, precautions m be taken to avoid applications of any voltage higher than maximum rated
ust
voltages to this high-impedance circuit. For proper operation, V
IN
and V
OUT
should be constrained to the range
GND≤(V
IN
or V
OUT
)≤V
CC
.
Unused inputs must always be tied to an appropriate logic voltage level (e.g., either GND or V ).
CC
Unused outputs must be left open.
